IMGBurn I/O error - Reason: Write Protected

[Mana]

Used DVD Shrink and it went just fine. Then I got this error, so I used DVD Decrypter then DVD Shrink with the same error. I've used these Discs before, but they are from a new pack... even tried different speeds. Thanks for your help!

Imgburn can't write from copy protected sources and we can't help you remove the protection.

Hi and welcome to the forum, Mana!

 

even tried different speeds.

There is only one available speed to use, as the burner only will deal with 2.4x. That sounds as the new package of discs is the problem.

 

I 20:54:55 Destination Media Type: DVD+R (Disc ID: RITEK-F16-01) (Speeds: 2.4x)

Try some other (better) brand of media. That burner with the current firmware version doesn't seem to like those discs.

Also revert ImgBurn back to the default settings. As said above, try with better media, such as Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden 8x blanks
